Wrong Fuel Ilchester - Ilchester Fuel Removal
The owner of a BMW was sorry that he put petrol in his diesel automobile when he got onto the road and it coughed and ceased. "I've gone and put the wrong fuel in my diesel vehicle," is what he said to us the initial time he called. To be honest, when he first called us he said he would like to shop around, but he called us back soon enough because our rate and on-scene times were the best. Obviously, our engineer had him once again performing his deliveries well within the time we'd quoted.

We're simply a phone call away.
It was about seven pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! James and me were resting there going over the golf, ready for the 8th call for the day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Ilchester and put the wrong fuel in her diesel BMW lease car. She was fairly troubled it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that things like this unfortunately do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected spot and, because it was just a short distance away from us, we could reach the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive away contented and not so anxious. One more misfuel correction in Somerset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Somerset we are encountering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the car.
Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
Give us a call if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of all types of AdBlue contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to handle in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank is likely to bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases fairly simply.
Be aware that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be wholly wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Somerset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, if we can get to it, we are able to drain it.
Re-Fueling Services
Out of fuel in Ilchester (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your car. They can also deal with any of the common troubles which can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
Vehicle Misfuel Ilchester - Ilchester Wrong Fuel Doctor
A couple of days ago a gentleman called us soon after his Skoda stopped along a road in Ilchester. He had by accident put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and got so far as the road before needing to give up. It was actually early in the morning and our technical engineer, who stays nearby, got to him in about a quarter hour. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in the car. "Many thanks to you for your immediate response, especially at 6 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
We have fuel drain specialists on duty in the neighborhood all set and waiting to show up and fuel drain your car of the wrong fuel or polluted fuel. We operate 24 hours a day and seven days a week. All of our employees are fully trained and experienced in coping with all types of vehicles.
Recent Fuel Drains in Ilchester
Several examples:
It must be horrible conking out in a vehicle filled with the improper fuel in the middle of the street. We had a customer who filled her car with the wrong fuel (Fiat) in Ilchester endured exactly this kind of trouble: "You may already know that I mistakenly filled my car with the wrong fuel last week. I was so distressed about my mistake that I was actually in tears. And yet I didn't need to worry since you were fantastic in resolving my problem."
Vehicle Misfuel Ilchester - Ilchester Fuel Drain
This was most definitely what is called the graveyard shift. It was roughly dawn and hardly anyone was around. It had been fairly quiet thus far, and Paul and I were loafing looking at a number of old newspapers. It was an unusual restful time in Somerset. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that the instant the phone rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist on the opposite end said: "I just concluded my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in the Chevrolet in error". We got him to inform us just where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Ilchester less than 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the car and he said thanks for arriving so rapidly. As we were returning to the office we saw two ladies on the edge of the highway who looked like they had a flat tyre. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, much to their elation.
Fuel Drain Ilchester - Ilchester Fuel Removal
A customer had broken down off a road in Ilchester. His Hyundai motor had stopped functioning and he'd no clue what was wrong right up until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got virtually no sleep the night before and that could have been the reason.
